Hi all, set the camera to take 2 minute exposures from 1 a.m till daylight this morning. Tonight is covered with cloud. I used a 14mm Samyang lens at f2.8 and 5D MK II at ISO 1600 on tracking mount. Got this very bright meteor at 4:18 a.m . The first image is a crop of the second showing the trail with more detail as the meteor brightened many times. I did not see it visually as was inside at the time snoozing. All the best for tonight.:thumbsup:
